Perthro

Wonderfully wyrd we wax

Woefully wyrd we wane

Will we weather what will

Nary a nuance

Not known to a Norn

Perthro proposes both

Probable and possible

Promoting past presents

So spiritually sublime

Secret sisters of sooth

Eihwaz

Everyone and everything

Essences of all are one

And in this evergreen

Ask of our ash

Absorb all of its answers

Alluring and inviting

Awesome and inspiring

Yggdrasil’s the answer

All of us are invited into

Our universal Yew

Jera

Oh youth of Yule

Your yearly yield and

Yellow yesteryears

Finalizing in festive

Fulfillment of fertility

The cycle of seasons

Started by Ostara soon

Signal’s summer’s start

The Horned One is here

To help with our harvest

Isa

Steadfast and subtle

Safe and secure

So stoic and solid

Cold character

Constantly controlled

Formidably firm

Frozen with frost

Finds itself foolishly

Inflexible as ice

Insisting upon itself

Nauthiz

Frustrations from failure

Finds further frictions

Finally forcing the fight

Need knows from nothing

Necessity knows from nothing

Resistance to the rime

Restraining the wrong

Results in resilience

Stress and strains

Show signs of serious struggle

Hagalaz

Hail is heavy and hard

Hurtful to the harvest

Sent solid from the sky

Soon sinks into the soil

Starting a second sowing

Divine devastation

Destruction and death

Create out of crisis

Cultivate from the corn

Cut down by the cold

Human Nature

Why improve ourselves

When we can destroy others?

 If we can keep others down

We won’t have to rise above ourselves.
